Birthdays and such

Today is Sunday. Tuesday is my husband, Josiah's, birthday. He will be turning 23. Although there are nearly 4 years between us, I can hardly tell. I have always noticed though, that the older you get, the less age differences matter. I have a sister who is 10yrs younger than her husband. You don't see it though. They interact just as any other couple. Age just matters less and less the older you get. I suppose there are exceptions for those worried about aging. Anyways, about his birthday. I feel guilty because I know we will not be able to do anything extra special. Our money is responsible now, for buying things for baby and such. I am still hoping to be able to make this day special for him.

Next month will be our one year anniversary. I am very excited, as I marvel at how an entire year has already passed. I admit, that I did imagine that we would have done much more in our first year. But it has been an amazing year, nonetheless. I can hardly believe it has been this long, being with Josiah just seems so natural, that I hardly sit and count the time that has passed. Again, we do not know what we will be doing to celebrate. One thing we definitely want to do is buy a nice piece of beef from Winn Dixie. This will be a very special steak. Josiah will be taking a (rare) day off of work for us to spend the day together. I hope to make the most of it, and have lots of fun.

Update:
Josiah had a nice birthday. I baked him a ham for dinner. His Grandmother sent him a card, and we were able to buy a car seat for baby. (Evenflo brand convertible car seat) Our anniversary was also nice. the day before, we had lunch at Azteca. On the actual day of our anniversary, we weren't sure what to do. We ended up going to Ft. Walton. We visited the mall, Target, and Uptown station. We did a lot more walking than buying, (which is a good thing.) We did buy a pack of flannel blankets for baby, along with another duck robe. Hopefully we will be buying more baby things soon.
